So OTM is now over. You can find the last story collection on Bitter Empire. Destiny 2's Solstice of Heroes is currently ongoing(it started yesterday), it gives you a chance to receive a free engram... I mean T-Shirt. There's also armor with 400 light available, if you complete the necessary milestones. It's not going to be easy, especially with the Redux missions.

My birthday was this month, there was an It themed surprise party. There was a photo cake with Skaarsgard's Pennywise(it was a damn tall cake), plenty of shiny red balloons and paper boats and a yellow raincoat in case you wanted the Georgie experience(no dismemberment though). Because some of my friends aren't exactly fans of horror/scares, the movie It: Chapter 1 wasn't played there. Instead, we ended up watching Justice League: The New Frontier. A guy died from fright near the beginning of that one, which is why I had picked it. Also, clown faces taste like sugar when eaten jk.

Overlord Season 3 is now airing on Crunchyroll, I've been watching it after binge-watching Magical Girl Site(which is similar to Magical Girl Raising Project or even Magical Girl Apocalypse). The Scum's Wish Decor manga finished as well, it's an epilogue for SW.

So... OTM is coming to an end. After several moves and one name change(thanks gawker), UberTrout is ending his regular story collection later this year(possibly during July, don't really know). The Lost Art YGO promotion is ending in July, with the last piece of Exodia the Forbidden One.

I recently got to play Vampyr and it's been enjoyable, finally defeated the boss I have dubbed "The Rat King". Fuck that guy. GTA Online's NightClub DLC is out soon as well, with a reward available if you sign in before July 2nd. Destiny 2's first Faction Rally of S3 ended recently, with Dead Orbit winning. I had joined New Monarchy solely for the Sweet Business Catalyst, which I earned by reaching Rank 51 during the rally.

I haven't seen any movies recently, but will probably go see AntMan 2 next month,

The PlayStation Store had the regular Golden Week Sale(lasts 2 weeks) and I picked up The Caligula Effect. The story's written by Satomi Tadashi, who wrote the story for Persona 1 and 2. Like Persona, it follows a group of teens as they use supernatural abilities from within themselves to fight. H1Z1 also comes to PS4 in about a week. Destiny 2's Warmind Expansion dropped last week and GTA V currently has a promo going on for "Business Week".

I saw Infinity War Pt1 opening weekend with a friend, it was enjoyable. Deadpool 2 comes out next week and then I'm off to Anime North the week after that.

This year is a great year for Lara Croft. First a movie this month that was a good videogame adaptation then a new game announced for later this year for PS4/XB1/PC :) Catherine's PS4/Vita port is slated for release later this year in Japan, so it'll probably show up in North America a year later(it's going to have online multiplayer, which may come with the translated game too).

The Lost Art YuGiOh! promotion is well underway, about to enter its 3rd month with Right Arm of the Forbidden One in April. The current schedule is as follows:

Feb 2018- Monster Reborn

Mar 2018- Right Leg

Apr 2018- Right Arm

May 2018- Exodia the Forbidden One

June 2018- Left Arm

July 2018- Left Leg

To get these, visit your nearby tournament store(list is here) and make a purchase of $30/$35(US/Canada) of sealed YGO cards(like tins or SE boxes). Which is good news, since LC-Kaiba came out earlier this month. It's a set with cards like Raigeki and BEWD and will definitely meet the minimum requirement for purchase.

Black Panther came out this month in theatres and it was very good. Meanwhile, Destiny 2 had a couple of events to participate in. They were Crimson Doubles and the currently ongoing(or recently concluded) Faction Rally. Instead of using my NM Hunter, I used my FWC Warlock since I had maxed out his level earlier this month(Plus I wanted that Arc subclass for him too).

So my characters are now Male Exo Void Hunter, Female Human Solar Titan and Male Awoken Arc Warlock. I've also been playing Fortnite on the PS4(online BR only). Season 3 started recently and I've found it's very easy to reach the top 25 without actually killing anyone. That isn't to say I haven't killed any enemy players, I believe I've killed 10 so far. I may purchase the founder's pack(It's currently 50% off if bought ingame, not the PS store).

Speaking of the PS store, they actually have a somewhat decent selection for 99 cent rentals this week. They also have the critics sale currently ongoing for you gamers out there. Hitman has another reactivated ET available, the Broker, available now. If anyone's doing this, you can find the egg in Dalia's office(in a safe).

I finally got enough money exporting cars to purchase a facility in GTA Online, did freak out a little when my armored Kuruma vanished since I didn't know it had garage space XD. New Monarchy won the first Faction Rally of 2018, which disappointed me a little. They're on a streak now and even though I have my Hunter join NM for it, my other characters join DO/FWC to get my hands on that oh so rare special gear for 1000 glimmer. I'm going to use a different character for each faction rally from now on, starting with my DO Titan. Hitman has another reactivated ET this week, so happy hunting!

Curse of Osiris is out now for all you Destiny 2 players. Plus New Monarchy won the last Faction Rally in D2, so I got that sword! Meanwhile, Death Stranding got some gameplay footage released(featuring Reedus and magical babies). GTA Online has a new heist dropping next week, featuring jetpacks, undersea exploration and a supercomputer.

It: Part One comes out on DVD/Bluray January 1st. A couple people I know were surprised to learn it was only half the story, with the second part taking place about 30 years after the kids fight the clown. Part 2 is out in 2019 I believe, so I'll just leave this here for your entertainment.

Anyone following Tokyo Ghoul Re:? The chapters on Mangastream are getting really interesting, though if you are only reading the Viz volumes I'd advise against visiting Mangastream. You won't really know WTF is going on there.

So how was Halloween for you guys this year? I did scare a few trick-or-treaters(and attended a couple of parties), so I had fun. Also spent $30 on about $70 worth of candy November 1st :)

Destiny 2 has another Faction Rally underway, so I'm hoping to get the New Monarchy sword(they have to win though, otherwise it's unavailable). Players of GTA Online may be pleasantly surprised to learn they got a deposit of 400k into their character's bank account, to celebrate the 4th anniversary of the multiplayer. If you weren't online during the couple of weeks, you probably won't receive it. I also picked up Chaos;Child, which is a direct sequel to Chaos;Head. Chaos;Child is only available on the Playstation 4 and Vita in English atm, it may get a PC version next year. It wouldn't be too surprising, considering the number of visual novels released for PC.

Thor Ragnarok is out in theatres now, with Justice League coming later this month. Agents of Shield returns next month, after Inhumans has ended its run. Personally, I think doing a show was better than squishing it all into a 2 hour movie(Mostly because the cast had never been introduced/mentioned in Phase 1 or 2).

Tokyo Ghoul Re: began publication in North America last month(Volume 1), with Volume 2 coming in December. It'll continue the every even month trend we saw with Tokyo Ghoul, which, incidentally, has taken quite a turn plotwise in Japan. As for what I mean by that, you'll have to find out on your own. Maybe even by supporting Viz through purchasing the volumes *wink*.

In the meantime, I have to go and decrypt half a dozen engrams(including 2 exotic),

Hello all you readers out there(both of you)! Since it's the month of ghosts, goblins and ghouls I decided to watch Cujo. I had read the book first, which made me feel sorry for the dog. Not so much in the movie. I did see It shortly after It lurched Its way into theatres last month. Meanwhile, the free PS+ games this month include MGSV: TPP and The Amnesia Collection, both for PS4. Day 5 Season 2 recently concluded, leaving more questions for viewers. Destiny 2 has been fun so far, but finding people for NF/raid is still challenging(even though I am in a clan). Thankfully, I'm in a FB group as well :)

Tokyo Ghoul finished publication in August over here, but its sequel starts hitting store shelves later this month(Tokyo Ghoul Re:). Chaos;Child also gets an english version this month as well courtesy of PQube.

First off, some stuff about IO Interactive... They're fully separated from Square Enix and have all the rights for Hitman. There's also a new ET coming this month for Hokkaido. I did go and see Alien: Covenant, found it to be very enjoyable. I also recently watched Split and was surprised to learn it was linked to Unbreakable(another Shyamalan movie about enhanced humans). Oh, yes... I did have to look his name up(It's not a name I've seen often), just so we're clear. There is a third movie in the works, with McAvoy, Willis and Jackson reprising their roles from the previous 2. E3 recently concluded, so make sure to check out the info out there.
